Aptly named, lemon balm is like a balm for the soul. If that sounds corny, hear us out – the perennial botanical is said to enhance mood, boost libido, and reduce stress, which is why you’ll find its mild lemon scent used in aromatherapy. In Golden Hour, lemon balm works in tandem with maca to spur creativity.

L-theanine is a key amino acid component that comes from green tea, the most consumed beverage in the world behind water. Known to enhance cognition, this nootropic component contains just trace amounts of caffeine, so it won’t make you tired or wired–just a calmer, more mellowed out version of yourself

I had a baby recently and went through a prolonged dry period. I didn’t miss alcohol per se, but I did find that I missed the ritual of enjoying the complexity of a nice glass of wine, or having an elegant cocktail as a way to unwind after work, or when connecting with friends. I wanted the relaxation, fun, and sophistication of a drink, without the alcohol.

Fantastic!
This drink is heavenly. I stopped drinking my white wine for my sober November journey and OMG this is a beautiful replacement. This tastes better than my Pinot Grigio! I’m in love. Waiting in line now as it is sold out. My only complaint is there is never enough! Highly recommend. I was NOT expecting this taste. 💕

Very lemon-y
I enjoy lemon drinks so I like this one, but it’s very strong. I usually serve it over ice, with a little bit of seltzer water to make it less strong and I add some mint leaves to complement the flavor. It feels like I’m having a nice drink without the alcohol. I love drjnking this with salads.
This is my favorite of the flavors. I've been buying the can assortments, but have pulled the trigger on the bottles of the Golden Hour because I love it so much. I haven't opened the bottle yet, but I assume it will be the same as the cans.
I think it will make a great gift as well, especially if I know they don't drink alcohol.
